The photographer at Focus On Studio was friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. Good lighting so instead of red eyes and skin, the new photo had clear skin without redness. At least five pictures were taken and shown to me on a large screen so I could choose a smile I liked. Quick and easy. Though it was a more expensive than FedEx, it was worth every penny.

The answer to your questions about hiring Stacy Able Photography is YESSSSSSS. When our destination…read morewedding was impacted by coronavirus we made the decision to get married in Indianapolis, alone, with our families watching over zoom and postpone our big wedding celebration for a year to April of 2021. One of the best decisions we made was finding Stacy and hiring her. We are SO grateful for her work, it made our makeshift elopement real and you will not believe how great the pics turned out. Stacy was recommended to us by a neighbor who knew she did wedding photography and I had not seen her work before but since we desperately wanted someone to photograph our wedding and she was willing to come, wear a mask and maintain a distance so we hired her. OH MY GOD WE ARE SO LUCKY. THESE PICTURES BELONG IN A MAGAZINE. I am not just saying this, she is so good. I have had pictures taken professionally before and it is so awkward, I normally feel so uncomfortable, hate the way I look, my poses, etc. The pictures she captured were flawless. Stacy was professional, prompt, helpful, and boy is she talented - just the best experience possible. It was beyond our expectations. People are still contacting me months after to tell me how great our photos look - like, friends of friends and beyond. People we don't even know are contacting me about these pictures. Hire Stacy! If you are looking at this and would like to talk to me, please ask Stacy for my contact information so I can answer any of your questions, I am happy to connect and give a glowing recommendation. This was the best part about our wedding.

Hiring Stacy for our wedding was the best decision we made. She came as a strong recommendation…read morefrom our planner and it is easy to tell why. Not only is she is incredibly kind, with a remarkable ability to put people at ease, but she also overdelivers with her images in every way. The way she captured our engagement session and a full weekend of wedding festivities blew us away and is something we'll cherish forever. Even our guests commented on how she really got in the action and captured the dance floor without impacting the vibe, and those are some of our favorite photographs from the night. My parents also could not stop raving about what a delight she was and how painless she made the process of many formal photos. It is true that you will spend more time on your wedding day with your photographer than anyone else - and there is not a better person to have by your side than Stacy.

A quick update on my previous review: we STILL have not received our prints. After attempting to…read moreleave feedback on their Facebook page, all negative comments were deleted from their page. Additionally, they managed to post more samples of their work. Basically, they have time to weed out criticism and post pictures, but not to return a phone call or email. Before they were deleted, most of the negative comments were about a lack of customer service and the fact that it was taking months for people to get what they had paid for.

IMPOSSIBLE to get ahold of anyone at Astra. First, they didn't come to the photo session we…read morescheduled because of a "mix up in scheduling." We attempted multiple times the morning of the missed appointment to contact them and only got their answering service. We stayed at the location for over an hour hoping they were running late...and becasue the location of our session was close to an hour from home. We finally received a call back, and to be fair, we were given a gift certificate to compensate for their mistake. Unfortunately, things only got worse. We have had so many issues contacting them to reschedule the session. Numerous calls daily for 2 weeks went unreturned. Numerous emails went unanswered. When we finally got a call back and rescheduled, Tabitha was apologetic, but the poor customer service continued. Our rescheduled session was in November. It's now March and we STILL don't have our prints. It took over two weeks, multiple phone calls, and multiple emails (again) to get an invoice with our credit applied. When the invoice finally arrived, I was told the prints would be available for pick-up that Friday....that was over three weeks ago!! Again, I've left numerous voice messages and sent numerous emails....no response. We've paid for the session, but have NOTHING to show for it. No prints. Nothing. Only frustration due to no return calls/messages. I have offered to just get a credit for the session we paid for and be done with this whole fiasco...no response. The staff may be friendly, but it does not make up for their poor customer service. Four months, money paid, and nothing to show for it. I personally would never go to them again...and would strongly recommend others to find someone else. I saw several reviews on Facebook of others having similar issues with non-receipt of prints and unreturned messages/calls....sadly, I'm not alone.

She is also very accommodating to schedules , which is amazing when you try to balance a new life with a newborn/ toddler. I cannot say enough about how amazing she is. I also think her prices are very fair, as she does amazing work and has a lot of props to choose from and a lot of high end equipment. I have seen some places where they like you to bring items you wish to have in the photos but she has everything you would ever need. Even offering adorable outfits for my little one for her first birthday photoshoot. She is also so kind and fun to talk to. I have never felt rushed out the door. Her photos take around 2+ weeks to get back but it is worth the wait and also is not that long of a wait time from other places I have used for other needs. 2 weeks is very quick in my opinion. I will continue to go to her as I feel she makes my little one and I feel so comfortable while seamlessly making us feel like the number one priority during every session I have done with her. This is my third, and definitely not my last! Thank you Stephanie!!!
